Hi!

You talk about the "semantics" of NUMA balancing between global, cgroup
and process. While I read the kernel doc "NUMA Memory Policy", it occur
to me that we may have a "NUMA Balancing Policy".

Since you are the reviewer of CONFIG_NUMA_BALANCING. I would like to
discuss the need for introducing "NUMA Balancing Policy" with you. Is
this worth doing?
